University of Sioux Falls alumni events are geared to keep you connected to the USF community and your fellow alumni.
In addition to alumni events, be sure to check out other events and opportunities that are open to the entire USF community, including athletics, concerts, art exhibits, seminars and more!
Connect & Celebrate
Fredrickson School of Education Alumni
You’re invited! Reconnect with fellow graduates, friends and faculty who were part of your journey. Enjoy light appetizers, desserts and refreshments as we honor the work of USF Fredrikson School of Education alumni across the region and beyond.
Our gathering will take place prior to check-in for the South Dakota literacy conference (Elevate. Educate. Empower. | Moving Literacy Forward Across South Dakota), so if you’re attending, you’ll have time to join us and still complete your registration at the Sioux Falls Convention Center. Not attending the conference? You’re still warmly invited—we’d love for you to stop by and connect with your USF community!
Four lucky attendees will be winners of a classroom gift basket, and you will surely leave feeling the power of the community that makes USF so special.
Join fellow alumni, friends and families for a relaxed summer evening at Looks Market on Thursday, July 24 from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. Enjoy a complimentary deli sandwich bar, reconnect with the USF community and unwind with good company! Beverages will be available for purchase.
